Here are a few tips from PotatoGoodness.com on How to Store Potatoes

• Do not refrigerate or freeze fresh potatoes before cooking.

• Store potatoes in a cool, dark, well ventilated place, avoiding high temperatures such as below sinks or next to appliances.

• Be sure air can reach your potatoes. Either store loose or in plastic or paper bags with holes.

• Don’t wash potatoes before storing as dampness will lead to early spoilage.

• Check potatoes regularly and remove any that show signs of spoilage as this will spread to the others.
